tabindex attribute with the filter widget.

[jannevdwerf]

So I am working on a project, Next Generation Internet and we value accessibility very much. So much that we found a small problem in our site. ​https://ngi.aimsites.nl/resources/.
When tabbing in the filter sidebar, we select the checkbox and label. Which both link to the same website, bus are seen as 2 of different inputs. Now I wanted to hardcode a tabindex="-1" inside those <a> with a simple script:

var filterBar = document.getElementById('secondary');
var links = filterBar.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (var i = 0; i  <  links.length; i++) { links[i].setAttribute('tabindex', '-1'); }

But that doesn't seem to fix the problem because you have such a good programmed plugin. So now I have the question if you could fix that problem. Maybe have an option for it to disable something like that?
Nevertheless, thank you for such a great plugin.

if (wpa.tabindex) {
            var q = t("input,a,select,textarea,button").not("a:not([href])")
              , A = 0;
            q.each(function() {
                var i = t(this).attr("tabindex");
                i && (t(this).removeAttr("tabindex"),
                A++)
            }),
            A > 0 && (wpa.errors || wpa.tracking) && (a.push(["control-tabindex", A]),
            console.log(A + " tabindex attributes removed from links, buttons and inputs by WP Accessibility"));
            var k = t('div[role="button"]').not("div[tabindex]")
              , _ = t('a[role="button"]').not("a[tabindex],a[href]");
            k.attr("tabindex", "0").addClass("wpa-focusable"),
            k.length > 0 && (wpa.errors || wpa.tracking) && (a.push(["button-add-tabindex", k.length]),
            console.log(k.length + " tabindex attributes added to divs with the button role by WP Accessibility")),
            _.attr("tabindex", "0").addClass("wpa-focusable"),
            _.length > 0 && (wpa.errors || wpa.tracking) && (a.push(["link-add-tabindex", _.length]),
            console.log(_.length + " tabindex attributes added to anchor elements with the button role and no href value by WP Accessibility"))
        }

Hi, @jannevdwerf! This is a plugin issue, and should be opened in the ​plugin's support forum.

Ironically, I'll also be the person to answer your question there, but this environment is for handling issues with WordPress itself; plugin issues should be handled in the support forums.
